We are still in the south and will be heading home this weekend. As far as the blog goes, I’ve had trouble finding time to do anything other than downloading my photos off the camera disk. Posting this week has been sporadic, but I wanted to stop by and give an update to let you know that I’m still here. I hope you haven’t forgotten me.
I did manage to choose a few photos I’ve taken on this trip that I’d like to share with you.
Old doorway, New Orleans.
Trees with Spanish moss line the edge of an inland waterway.
The beautiful Hotel Monteleone, New Orleans. Wow.
Shrimp boat, Biloxi MS. I was humming Teen Angel while working on this photo.
The top of a bottle of Blanton’s.
We’re spending a few quiet days with friends who we’ve known since high school. This will probably be the last post until Sunday evening when we’ll return home.
See you then.

Oh New Orleans!! Been there... many moons ago, but still. OTher worldly.
And that shrimp boat - totally makes me think of Forrest Gump. Heh.
Enjoy your 'days off'. Travel safe.

That's an unusual bottle top. I don't think any of our whiskies have such interesting tops.
Oh, it looks like a wonderful trip. Beautiful photos.

Thank you for transporting me to someplace beautiful and exotic -- to me, anyway! And no, we haven't forgotten you. Of course not! Safe trip home for you. :)

Beautiful pics. I love, LOVE the first one of the door. Have a thing for doors I'm finding.
I hope you both are having a wonderful time and great weather.....your photos are gorgeous as always and how's George doing?
I would just love to go to New Orleans. Never been and I have always been so captivated by the architecture and the history. Someday :)
Safe journey home. Looking foward to more photos.
I love the photo of the door. Beautiful. Have a great weekend with your friends.
Safe travels! Thanks for sharing with us!
wave as you fly through Atlanta!
You know you're on a real vacation when you don't have time for all of us;) Safe travels...
New Orleans. What a great place for you and your camera! Lucky us. :) That first shot is wonderful. Have a great time, Kate. :)
Beautiful. I've been to New Orleans once and I'd like to return. I'm a big Blues fan.
Enjoy your vacation!
Oh, I love trees w/Spanish Moss!! So eerie when the wind wafts through...
And that hotel? I'm-a fixin' to put it on my MustStay list...right underneath the SeaShanty...;)
LOVE the photos!!!

Enjoy every minute! Traveling mercies for you on your way home.
Love the door pic!
Too busy to post on your blog...wow, you must be having great fun! And since you're in the Big Easy, I hope that y'all are
eating lots of good food!!! N'awlins is a great place for a photog...up close shots are the best...the architectural details on buildings, the street lamps, the wrought iron, the flowers, the food...where does one begin. Thank God for the digital camera and no more film purchases and development costs.
See ya when you get back! Jeanne
We really enjoy seeing the city through the lens of your camera.
That is a beautiful shot of the hotel and we would love to have you add it to our Flickr group: http://bit.ly/HMFlickr
Happy Travels!
I happen to love photos of gates, doors, entrances... sure enjoyed yours.
Love this collection, love your trip destinations!!..
Thanks for the update! Have a great trip home and love the photos :)
Will you get to the southwest side of LA?

Hope you had beautiful weather the entire trip! We went to Indiana for the Easter weekend plus two days (too far for five days :) and had beautiful weather.

I hope the statement "too busy" means that you are having a great time.
What .is. it about old doors, old balconies, and things like that from N. Orleans????? LOVE them.
Drive home safely, enjoy the drive home as well as the time away.

Are you in New Orleans? I missed that part! Bet you've had some fabulous food! Can't wait to hear all the details (food ones too)! Gorgeous photos- have a safe trip home!
You and I have had the same spring break calendar! It looks as if you have had some great adventures! I too went to MS...though not to the Gulf...my son lives near Meridian!
